What, Why's, and How's of the New IOD Network
The general purposes of the new IOD Program are
- to provide access to quality medical care at no cost to any employee injured on the job
- to establish an efficient system for processing claims, and
- to maintain records of all injuries and/or illnesses.
Metro's occupational injury program is a self-insured program. Metro's program is not workers' compensation and is not subject to workers' compensation regulatory requirements.
ASC will contact the Metro department and the injured employee regarding the injury and the IOD benefits of the employee. ASC will also contact the physician to coordinate a return-to-work plan for the injured employee.
No payment shall be made when personal injuries were due to the employee's willful misconduct, intentional self-inflicted injury, intoxication, or willful failure/refusal to use a safety appliance or perform a duty required by law. No payment shall be made in the case of death due to sickness or disease.
